@El Raider I'm not saying it's okay to stuff a bunch of crap down your drain, but periodically putting a few things through a garbage disposal isn't an issue so long as you run enough water through to remove whatever remnants may be left. The only time I've ever had to hydro jet was on a property that was vacant for several years allowing the rust to settle in a horizontal cast iron main drain pipe.
@@InuranusBrokoff here’s your argument in a different context; “it’s ok to occasionally take heroin as long as you don’t get hooked and do it all the time”
Around 1959 my mother had a disposal installed. The guy that put it in said to run ice cubes thru it to clean it. That was 64 years ago. I have used this method and told lots of people about it. It is fun to do it.
As a former plumber, a good tenth of my jobs were repairing and replacing leaky disposers after people tried the ice trick. DO NOT throw ice in there, ever!
If a glass of ice will mess up a disposal, then it was on its last leg anyway. Clearly you either were never a plumber or you were fired for being a bad one.
Dawn is literally the best soap I use. I honestly only went with it because of the cute pictures of the ducklings and how they don’t hurt them when cleaning off the crude oil. When I actually use it though, it’s really some good detergent

Plumber here. Don't use hot water when using the disposer. It enables the water to seep below the spinning disk and degrade the rubber holding the water tight seal. You will know when that rubber is gone when water is coming through the center of your Badger garbage disposal.
Yeah just don't do it all the time, only do it in cases like in this video really helps clean those blades down to the metal. Some high end manufacturers would actually tell you this as well.
As someone who spends the majority of their working day clearing out the remnants of people improperly using garbage disposals, I have to say that I approve of those message. It’s the best trick to get those suckers nice a sparkly clean, the ice also helps to keep those blades nice a sharp as well. A real pro-tip is to use a bit of white vinegar with the ice. Baking soda is a no-go because under the right conditions it just turns to concrete, and that is an expensive, time consuming, and very messy repair to make on a section of drain line.
If ice dosent do the trick, stick one, possibly two brillo pads in while trinkling hot water. Next, cycle disposal on/off in short burst. After doing so about ten to twenty times, plug disposal and run hot water fully. Fill sink a quarter way, pull plug then crank disposal on. It'll break the rest of steel wool down to small flakes and flush out on out. Iv done this many times, pulled p-traps to make sure no clogs or damage and soo for after doing so about 20+ jobs, no issues yet. So far the best results if ice dosent cut it.
I've done the ice method and I put a bunch of baking soda over the ice and then pour white vinegar over it and then turn it on and let it go to work. Does wonders.
The Ice had nothing to do with it. Ice won’t cause your disposal to seize up, or rust out. Age will though. Improper use will also cause a disposal to prematurely stop functioning. Greases, and oils, large pieces of food waste, vegetables, and especially RICE. I’ve replaced hundreds, maybe even thousands of disposals at this point, and one thing I can confidently say is they are all made like shit. To avoid real plumbing issues down the road with your sewer system, or if you have a septic system, just get rid of the disposal entirely. Two things plumbers love, Flushable wipes, and garbage disposals, because the problems they cause most often only occur after hours, on a weekend, or right in the middle of a holiday celebration. It seems alright till you’ve got a fat-burg the size of a small elephant with some flushable wipes binding it together forcing raw sewage into every crack, and crevice that you’d prefer it not be.
Yea urs is prob old. The cheaper models are gavi coated. Top models are a stainless. Ice would be no different than water. Ice wont cause it to rust in 2 weeks.
@@capo337g not suggesting it caused the rust. My point was the ice was the straw that broke the camels back. I’m guessing I would have had more than 2 weeks left on it, if I had not done the ice cleaning.
That works great until your wife puts 5 dozen eggshells in it, with minimal water flushing. It clogged up and I poured 1/2 gal of vinegar into it and let it set overnight. The eggshells de-calcified & after running hot water through it, it finally drained out. That was better than taking the unit out to clear the pipes. She was making 30 lbs of Cinnamon Pecans for Xmas presents, so how could I be upset?
I’m glad that we don’t have that where I live tbh , I always found these things horrifying since the whole “I let my hand get shredded” scenes in horror movies.
I use 1/4 cup landry powder with 1/4 cup of boiling water. Run for 2 minutes or without running water. Then run when adding 2 quarts boiling water where mixed 1/2 cup baking soda. Then add 2 quarts ice without running water. Then 2 quarts very hot water with 1 cup white vinegar. Works all time and I do it every 1 to 2 months. The vinegar helps clear grease out of drain lines.
Learned this by accident. I poured a bunch of ice into the sink from my cooler. I turned on the water and fired up the garbage disposal to get rid of the ice quickly. Couldn’t believe all the crap that gurgled up and out.
You might try a little bleach that also help clean it out and make it smell better too. Or if it happens you happen to have a pool and you had the smaller bleach tablets put a couple of small tablets in it????

I do the ice, but I always add a few egg shells to it and a 1/4 or so of salt, give it a small shot of water and kick it on, works every time. It might be over kill but sometimes you need some overkill.
I did that with my disposal and there was this this grinding noise it used to make before i cleaned it with ice and dish soap. After i did the ice and dish soap it smells way better and doesn't make that grinding sound anymore.

Glass and sand works good too
